OBJECTIVE
For City Council to award a contract to All Cities Engineering, Inc. for the construction of Project No. CP1361000 – Chapman Avenue and Dale Street Water Improvements Project.
BACKGROUND
The City’s 2020 Water Master Plan Update has identified 228 miles of Asbestos Concrete (AC) pipeline installed in the 1950s to be replaced under the Water Main Replacement Program, as these pipes are nearing the end of their design useful life. At the same time, the Master Plan recommends that the City target smaller diameter mains in its replacement program and prioritize areas with lowest fire flow availability.
In considering the above criteria, the Chapman Avenue and Dale Street Water Improvement Project area was selected. The project consists of constructing new 8- inch water mains and abandoning existing undersized 4 and 6-inch AC water mains in the unincorporated area of Orange County. The entire project consists of installing approximately 9,800 linear feet of 8- inch Polyvinyl chloride Pipe (PVC). The scope of work also includes furn ishing fittings and appurtenances, trenching, shoring, backfilling, compaction, asphalt repair and replacement, street replacement and pipe disinfection and testing. It includes the construction of approximately 19 fire hydrant assemblies, 208 water servic e connections and three (3) connections to the existing water system.
